The mission of WFP is to end global hunger. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

After an emergency, WFP uses food to help communities rebuild their shattered lives. The organization has the global footprint, deep field presence and local knowledge and relationships necessary to provide access to nutritious food and contribute to the lasting solutions, especially in many of the world\u2019s most remote and fragile areas.
Supply chain management is at the core of WFP\u2019s humanitarian response and therefore an area of constant strategic focus. Over 4.500 supply chain staff work around the clock to deliver food assistance to beneficiaries in some of the most complex environments.
